## Prompt

```text
Using the provided reference image, transform the cat and the office-desk setting into a retro 16-bit side-scrolling video game mock poster. Keep the reference cat recognizable as the main character, but redraw everything in detailed pixel art. Build a vertical poster composition with 1 large title at the top reading "CAT QUEST", 1 subtitle ribbon reading "ADVENTURE", 1 HUD row beneath it showing 4 elements: a 1UP icon, a heart counter marked "x3", a horizontal status bar, and a stage/score display reading "Q-1 0750". Turn the reference office scene into a 2-level platform stage using the desk, laptop, charts, books, plant, and room decor as game-environment props. Show 2 playable-cat sprite poses total, one on the upper platform and one on the lower platform, both side-view walking/running. Add 2 gray mouse enemies, one on each platform. Add collectible coin effects around the upper platform and a small question-block style item on the lower platform. At the bottom, include 3 stacked menu buttons labeled "EXPLORE", "COLLECT", and "LEVEL UP!", plus 1 footer tagline reading "AN EPIC RETRO PLATFORMING ADVENTURE!". Use a worn printed-game-poster look with distressed edges, warm arcade colors, and a nostalgic console-game cover aesthetic.
